The calculations outlined at https://github.com/osresearch/heads/pull/1282#discussion_r1072473677
Sums to having 'ifdtool -f layout.txt ifd_shrinked.bin && cat layout.txt'
The example for T440p:
00000000:00000fff fd
00021000:00bfffff bios
00003000:00020fff me
00001000:00002fff gbe
Here: 00bfffff-00021000=BDEFFF
Which is exact result of @rbeslow's calculations.
There is an issue on haswell, maybe because of car, maybe because of non native memory init blob.
But this is not the case for xx20/xx30 boards.
This makes configs much less dependent on directory layout.
As of this commit the following variables are supported:
* @BOARD_BUILD_DIR@ - absolute path under build/
* @BLOB_DIR@ - absolute path to blobs/

This commit adds explanatory notes and updates existing t530 and w530 boards to generally align them with the dGPU points and provide signposting for those with and those without dGPU boards. It also adds an additional README in the blobs directory to explain the vbios extraction and building process.
